Star Wars

This is a model of a new droid in Star Wars universe, it first appears in Episode VII : The Force Awakens (2015). When I see the first trailer of the movie which this ball like droid appears, I want to make it but the complexity of the sphere curve made me to put a side that project for a while. It's hard to make an easy template but still looks good, until our friend Fidel Olmos Aaron from Venezuela send me his template of BB-8 droid to me. The 2 sheets template is in PDF and PDO which also the assembly instructions. The scale of this model is 1:6 according to Fidel.

Igor or Iron Man Mark 38 is a heavy lifting armor suit and it appears in Iron Man 3 movie, when Tony Stark order J.A.R.V.I.S to make "Igor" to hold the crane from tumbling down. Mark 38 is shaped like a hunchback servant from Frankenstein story named Igor, that's why it was named Igor. Before the Hulkbuster model 14 armor is made Mark 38 is the most powerful armor suit that Tony Stark ever made.

Ancient History

This artifact is some kind of jewelry made from gold. It was found on Colombia, it was dated around 1000 CE. It was made by the Quimbaya civilization, a pre-Colombian culture in South America. It was found together with other shape of gold works. The airplane design shape often made it associated with advanced technology from ancient time by many ancient astronaut theorists. Archeologist believed it was part of zoomorphic, animal shape objects. In 1994, Peter Belting and Conrad Lubbers created an RC aircraft using this Quimbaya airplane shape and it could fly. In my opinion, I am an RC aircraft maker too, from what I learned whatever the shape as long as it has wing, power and have the correct balance on the Central of Gravity the airplane will flying, even you can make a lawn mower shape to fly. I think it's more like a flying fish than an airplane.

Celebration

I was working on Hulkbuster armor suit and then I remember on 19th will be a Chinese New Year. So I made this cute and simple papercraft of a goat, it is representing the animal zodiac sign on lunar new year 2015. It also a wood goat, so I made the display stand textured with wood. Some say it is a sheep some say a goat, they looks pretty similar though. The papercraft only consist of 2 pages. Happy Lunar New Year for all my friends that celebrate it.
